- I have essentially fallen in love with this girl, whoever she is, since I heard this. The cello is by far the best instrument ever created. This track is pretty minimalist relying solely on Wade’s great vocals, cello and a bit of percussion. Spindle Magazine
Yahoo, something fresh and skillful! Red lipped and confident, her breathy voice is given the edge with minor keys and blues scales and a Florence-Welch-y howl. She made full use of a cello and foot-pedalled her own percussion - watch her live; she is a spectacle taking into stride the chasmic hall and making it sing for her’ - Folkgeek
"When evaluating any EP from a new artist, the verdict either falls on the side of ‘I’ve had enough,’ or ‘Please put more on my plate.’ And Blood and Air easily fits into the ‘Please put more on my plate’ category. We can’t wait to hear what this psycho cellist has for us next." - Dan MacIntosh, Music News
"Brushes, sticks, boxes – it’s all sounds good to us. But most of all it sounds like nothing we’ve heard before. And that’s why Abi Wade is so exciting. She’s really made that cello her own.' - The Source
Abi Wade was something of a revelation. She sings and plays the cello (and the piano for one song). But how she plays the cello! With a mixture of pizzicato and bowing, with two foot pedals adding percussion and a selection of small drumsticks and the bow itself, she additional taps and thumps and judders the stick on and around the body and strings of the cello to create a fascinating and complex web of sound to accompany her rich voice and strong and varied songs. Definitely someone I’d like to see again. The Public Reviews
